Maze's Challenge "We are Maikendo, you cannot beat us!"

1
This Artifact allows you to create an environmental hazard.
Used by Maze, Created by Ricterx.
(During activation, it is obvious the environmental effect is issuing forth from you. You must actively and obviously be using up a bag of acorns wrapped in flower stems. You must use this Artifact obviously when activating this Effect.)

Scattering a number of acorns around the area the user summons a maze of flowers and trees around the region. The dandelion puffs and pollen that float around cause a disorienting effect that causes mild confusion, a lax sensation, and a hallucination to make things around the region look different. Making navigation difficult.

-------------

Maze's challenge has manifested in a simple game of navigating an area, embodying an explorer he wants players to get past the conditions present in the region and make it out safely, right now it takes help from his friends as it's built into his tunic. But one day, he may do so without help.

Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action. You must use up a bag of acorns wrapped in flower stems in order to activate this Effect.

You create a hemispherical dome of a flower filled forest originating at your Location, with a radius of 60 feet. and lasting for 5 minutes. The area inside your zone is affected in the following ways:

  • Obscured Vision: The zone is partially blocked from view. Anything within the zone will have difficulty seeing anything or being seen from the outside. Any rolls that rely on sight are made at -3 dice, and rolls that would benefit from sight are rolled at -1 dice.
  • Slippery: All movement distances are halved within the zone. Anyone who wishes to move further than their Free Movement within a Round must roll Dexterity + Athletics. If they fail, their movement is limited to their Free Movement and they fall down.
The zone expands immediately to its full size from the chosen Location, but will be stopped from spreading in a particular direction by any barriers or cover, and can only fit through openings large enough to fit a grown adult. If a new opening appears while the Effect is still active, it will finish spreading in that direction.

Any time someone leaves your zone, they remain affected by your Zone Effects for an additional 3 Rounds as if they were still within the zone.

Your zone blends with the environment, seeming to arise naturally from local effects. Observers who roll Perception + Alertness and achieve an Outcome 4 or higher notice that it is unnatural.

  • The Effect does not follow you after you activate it.
  • If you select a location at the edge of your range, you will be just outside the zone once the Effect is activated
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
